Washington, D. C President Cool
lge added a new chapter to the air
service controversy by making public
the report of a special naval board
Which found that the battleship re
mained "the final arbiter in sea war
fare," and airplanes would never "as
sume paramount Importance."
The president also issued a formal
statement in explanation of the $:io,
D00,000 supplement naval items re
cently submitted to congress by the
budget bureau which vero founded on
recommendations of the naval board
but sharply modified. The complete
building program submitted by the
board involved expenditure of $80,
000,000 a year for tnree yeara.
The president mikes no reference to
the board's findings as to relative mili
tary value of aircraft, battleships and
submarines, the problem he assigned It
for study last September. He adopts
the board's view, however, that mod
ernization of old battleships (not in
cluding the elevation of guns) is the
first requirement and completion of
aircraft carriers and their planes sec
